sounds bad to me!

but if you don't want alot of people to stop playing then why not, BUT change it as a sweetner like you can steal someone's miners not lifers.


say for every 15 at's you can steal 5-10% of someone's miners but please for everything that is holy lets up keep our lifers.

this would benefit everyone.

Bad idea, bad bad bad.

Why would you want to destroy farms, if you want UU go raiding...

Miners are unarmed and the cosmos deems that they are protected :D :wink:

Also 15% of miners per 15 ATs is a crazy ratio, chaos would ensue...

i think it would make the game more fun...okay 1% per 15at's.

it's better than just killing off miners!

I just dont see the point.

Updates like the army size cap and the plague were brought out so that smaller players had a chance to catch up. An update like this would do the complete opposite.

and as such no offence to the big guns but I would build up a 1 trillion strike and start raiding everyone with 70-80million armysizes...

stupid idea... no offence...

lifers are lifers they are untouchable... and as such miners are untouchable

killing lifers/miners has little real support, however, people have suggested that there be an injure miners to reduce effectiveness of miners during wars and not... by and far I believe that's actually one of the best ideas proposed by people.

stealing miners is more or less just a variation of raiding, so no...

the temporary disabling of them is a good idea though...

Or what about we let game as it is for that and stop to try to modify it again?
There'll be never perfection, so why modifing again we KNOW we'll later want again to fix it!
